Metric was sooooooooo good last night!
Emily Haines is such an amazing performer on stage- I got the chance to hear her sing live at coachella where she accompanied God Speed on a few tunes, but that was NOTHING compared to seeing her fronting her own band. SO much energy and..... well..... just wow!!!!!!! Tons of people got on stage and danced- the night was filled with overflow of positive energy...
Of course I had to meet my obligatory weirdo. I noticed a guy who had been chatting to himself earlier and attempted conversing with sadbird. After the opening band Midnight Moviesplayed ( swell all around those guys..very surprised at the tone and quality of their set check out thier sound on thier webby for free!!!!) I turned to make my way toward the loo and sir oddball ( I think he was just really high on something) eyeballs me and sais "Tomorrows Wednesday"... I shimmy away quickly and quietly- stoic smile plastered to my face. To compensate I did meet some really wonderful people.
Once Metric finished their kickass encore DJ Gregarious Spun a super dooper looper set.. sorta post punky retroish rawk. I got pulled onto the dancefloor and convinced one of the cute hot chickies to go grab sadbird as well. He initially stayed rooted on the spot, but DJ Gregs spinning power (and no doubt the little hotties shaken their thang)enticed him to dance for a good few songs. And all this afore midnight!!!!!
The Doug Fir seems really nifty about having early shows- this one started at around 8. I only snapped one picture last night... I am not sure what the policy at the club is regarding photography, so I will ask. It wont be my favorite place to take pictures... the way the stage is set up I would have to either fight through crowds or get a much better camera to be able to get the shots I want. Perhaps for awhile I shall just be a watcher.
I never did find me a corset out in the real world, so I checked online and found a nifty one that wont break the bank! It should be here in time for spooky night... so very yay!

the show sounds like fun, I've heard negative things about the Fur but, not yet gone. Maybe UNKLE.
You sound quite popular!!!! My schedule comes out on friday or saturday. After 6pm I'm off. What about yours? I think I'll give you my # so we can chat alittle.
Glad to hear you found a corset!!!
